Hello all. Was helping digging out an area for a shed, and decided to detect the ground as we dug it out. Nothing to special but here they are. Also if I could get any info on a couple items let me know.

So I know the plate is a 1932 PA Plate. I'm not sure what the bottle is from. A quick search showed the name vauliues New York which shows a perfume company. However the bottle doesn't look like a perfume bottle to me. Anyone of any ideas? The lid is pretty interesting, hopefully yall can make out the pics on it. I also have no idea on what the gun looking thing is. I hope someone can figure that out. Also the other item looks like an old toy wagon wheel. Thanks for looking

The button or badge with the flags kind of looks like something for the Army Signal corps, but I could be wrong.

The button/badge is actually the lid to the glass jar.

Showed my grandfather this piece and he said right away he believes it is part of a hood ornament off an old Pontiac. As you can see what looks to be an Indian head in this pic. I spent the past hour looking at pics but can not find it. Hopefully someone can lAnd me on the right car. Pretty neat I guess. Considering I didn't find many items here and the few I did belong to a car.

I believe your Grandfather is right. One of Pontiacs slogans was "Chief of the sixes". They also made tokens with the Indian Chief head on them to commemorate some of their 6 cylinder vehicles.
